Nom Nom Linky Party/Crockpot Caramel {Recipe}



Mmm how does this look, guys?
This is sweet & tasty caramel, right out of a can! I know, it's a can, in the crockpot...who would have guessed. I made this overnight, while I was sleeping...so by morning, I had this glorious stuff oozing out of the can, ready for me to drizzle it over cupcakes :)

How do you get this overnight caramel, you are wondering?
Well, I found it here {thanks to Pinterest, duh} and knew I HAD to try it!
Take 1 can of sweet condensed milk and place it in the crockpot, with water filled to the top of the can. Cook on low for 8-9 hours or high for 4...that's it!!
No, seriously, you're done ha!
Simple, Yummy, and yes...you can eat this right out of the can
{I did and I'm not ashamed. Not even a little.}

Easy Crockpot Chicken/Broth {Recipe Tip}



Okay, if you're like me, making meals can be...well, like a chore lol

I'm working towards being more organized and to think about our weekly meals ahead of time. Enter in this simple chicken crockpot recipe tip! We use chicken A LOT and I cannot believe I didn't think of this sooner. Basically, using this method, I will always have yummy cooked chicken on hand for quick (and maybe some planned) meals. Do this on a Saturday or Sunday, and have chicken for the week!!


Here's what you'll need:
- 4-6 uncooked chicken breasts
- Cooking spray
- Salt/pepper/whatever spices you'd like
- Foil
- Crockpot

 Cut the chicken into cubes or strips. Cut a piece of foil, spray with cooking spray.
Season chicken to your liking.

 Fold over the foil, like above...

 ...then fold the end towards the center...

...creating a nice lil' foil pocket, like so :)

Turn the crockpot on low, spray the inside and place the chicken foil packet inside.
Pour about 1/3 cup of water in the bottom and cook for about 4-6 hours.

Wala! Cooked chicken for your weekdays, and you didn't have to slave over it...oh, and...

...you get chicken broth too!! Perfect for making soups, especially in the crockpot :)

That's it for now, hope you enjoyed this easy crockpot tip!
